Overview
Un himno maravilloso a lo ordinario y lo espectacular narrado a cuatrocientos quilómetros de la Tierra... Un grupo formado por seis astronautas lleva a cabo una misión rutinaria en una estación espacial. Cada uno permanecerá allí seis meses, durante los cuales vivirá una auténtica transformación. Con una prosa de una extraordinaria belleza, Samantha Harvey nos habla de lo que supone sentirse humano suspendido a más de cuatrocientos quilómetros de la Tierra. A slender novel of epic power, Orbital deftly snapshots one day in the lives of six women and men traveling through space. Selected for one of the last space station missions of its kind before the program is dismantled, these astronauts and cosmonauts—from America, Russia, Italy, Britain, and Japan—have left their lives behind to travel at a speed of over seventeen thousand miles an hour as the earth reels below. We glimpse at moments of their earthly lives through brief communications with family, their photos and talismans; we watch them whip up dehydrated meals, float in gravity-free sleep, and exercise in regimented routines to prevent atrophying muscles; we witness them form bonds that will stand between them and utter solitude. Most of all, we are with them as they behold and record their silent blue planet. Their experiences of sixteen sunrises and sunsets and the bright, blinking constellations of the galaxy are at once breathtakingly awesome and surprisingly intimate.
